The countdown to D'land

It's quite funny - have been reading my old blog from the first time I went to Germany and realising actually how funny everything was there and of course how much has changed over the 2 years since I have been there.

Anyway right now am still working but not for much longer as pretty soon my summer working is going to be coming to end. So I look forward to much partying with the Liverpool crewe and abusing the fact I am still here.

So anyway quick update on Germany (AGAIN) - less than 3 weeks until I set sail...or fly however you see it really. Am going to be an ERASMUS student who have a well-known reputation for being party-mad folk - I can only hope I will contribute well to the already sterling reputation. Have already been to Bonn with high school many years ago so I got an idea of where I am going roughly and I can remember where Beethoven's house is PLUS who can forget it is also the birthplace of non other than Frau Tinee Ferst.

Anyways on the preperation side of things e.g. packing really not feeling prepared to be honest - the luggage thing is freaking me out;
1. I am NOT a light packer
2. I have to have lots of shoes to feel safe
3. I need a travel kettle the Germans cannot make tea on the British scale
4. I don't want to be alone - I need to be with people.

If I can get those 4 fear factors out of my head then it should be ok.

Oh and if the University's accommodation office would like to hurry up - as at this point in time it would seem I am homeless!!!! It makes the University of Liverpool's accommodation office look like the most organised place in the world:-D

anyways enough bitching - time to have a cup of tea
